As the transfer window officially opened on June 15, Yaoung Africans (Yanga SC), the reigning champions of the Premier League, are set to make significant additions to their squad.

Head coach Miguel Gamondi is leading the charge to strengthen the team’s attack and defense ahead of the next season.

Yanga, fresh off their triumph in the 2023/24 Premier League season, are preparing to represent Tanzania in the CAF Champions League. They will be joined in this continental competition by Azam FC, one of Tanzania’s wealthiest clubs.

Ally Kamwe, Young Africans’ information officer, acknowledged the immense effort required to build a top-tier team capable of competing at the highest levels. “We will make great signings,” Kamwe stated as quoted by the Guardian.

“We realize that in order to be the best, it is important to have a strong team. Something that is being worked on with great attention. Everything is on the work plan, and our goal is to ensure we are strong for the new season. The more fans support us, the greater our achievements will be,” he added.

The club’s ambitions for the upcoming season are clear: they aim to continue their dominance in the Premier League and to advance further in the CAF Champions League.

Last season, they reached the quarter-finals but were eliminated by the formidable Mamelodi Sundowns. This year, they aspire to surpass that achievement and make a deeper run in the tournament.
